Slugs. I'm so disappointed. No need to tell me about beer and copper and sluggo. Noted for next time, if I decide there is one. #tomatoes #gardening

I thought I just had one tomato. Then I realized I had a tiny addition. Today I realized there are TWO tiny additions! #gardening #tomatoes

I forgot to pick this okra and now he is living his best life. I'm going to let him dry on the plant and save the seeds. The smaller okra on the left is 2 inches long for comparison.

I think I have a tiny tomato! I mean I do, obviously, but I guess what I'm saying is, I hope he survives. #tomato #gardening

Because I have one okra plant and his container isnt really deep enough, I'm getting a pod every 3 days or so. Totally grateful. But seriously if #Jimothy showed up he could have the whole plant! #foodsky #okra #gardening

I think this means I might be growing tomatoes! I hope they grow! #tomatoes #gardening #foodsky

How do you say Adios Graham Cracker in Spanish? Hell, in any language?

I did it. I grew an okra. I cooked the okra. I ate the okra on a fine china plate. #okra #gardening #containergardening

I think Little Okra might bloom today!!! #okra #gardening

Latest pics of Little Okra. I have no idea if this bodes well or not. He's green. He isn't dying. He doesn't have aphids. Our impending heat wave is right up his alley as well. #okra #gardening #containergardening #urbangardening

High on the success of Little Okra (who hasn't even flowered yet so I'm sure the joke is on me), I planted a tomato, and named him Tomás. #gardening #tomato #urbangardening #plants

People who know about cars: what do you do about a scrape to the paint from a garage door? It looks surface level. Knocked the R off. Touch up kit? #cars #paint #fml

May your fuckups today be minor, unlike mine, which involved baking my baguettes directly on the oven rack. #foodsky #baking #foodfail

My partner is making Grown Up Beanie Weenies, so I made cornbread! #baking #cornbread #foodsky

It has arrived and I am over the moon with glee!!!! I assumed it would be great, but it exceeds all expectations.

Holly Deitz@ineedtoeatpie· Jun 15

I need help with my okra. This thing in the palm of my hand...is it a bud? Is it ok that it fell off? It was lying beside the plant. The plant seems healthy, but I literally don't know how to garden. #advice #containergarden #okra

I think Little Okra is thriving. I hope he is. Just one pod of okra, please. If nothing else, just one pod. #okra #gardening #food

It's Chicken Liver Day!!! Chopped up, broiled (these are a portion from the haul I froze last Fri), mixed with Sweet Hot Mister Mustard and served on English muffins. This was really great! Maybe cheese broiled on top next time? #chickenlivers #foodsky #leftovers #cheapeats

Chopped chicken livers on top of English muffins sit on a paper towel. Sweet Hot Mister Mustard sits behind.

Slightly better looking than last time. They smell delicious and I love listening to the sound they make while cooling. #foodsky #bread #baking

I have an okra start! When I got in the car, Born to Be Alive started playing, so I feel great about its chances with the human who cannot keep plants alive! #okra #vegetables #plants #rescueplants

There's A LOT to hate about living in South Carolina, but piping hot drive thru fried chicken livers is not one of those things. $8. This makes four servings. I eat one and freeze three. #foodsky #food

I figured out a way to easily move my sewing machine on/off my desk. I'm one step closer to actually sewing again. This is the beginning of happiness. If you sew, you know. #sewing #fabric

How about the ugliest baguettes ever baked?! They were delicious, so there's that.

I think I saw that someone had figured out how not to have the quotation marks. I had to email to myself to properly download. I have no doubt you'll get the quirks figured out. Fun site!!!!

A fungus almost killed me once, so cooking with mushrooms was not something I've ever been interested in. I decided to try and let that ick go. Here's hoping! #cooking #food

I literally had no choice. Y'all kept posting this and I'm literally sitting here with Canva in my pocket. 🎂

Two still from a movie. Man asks pageant contestant to describe her perfect date. She replies, That's a tough one. I'd have to say April 25th. Because it's not too hot and not too cold. And Holly Deitz was born, duh.

I was so in love with Enik. Or did I just want the jewels? Also, did he steal that tunic from The Heat Miser? #lotl #sleestak
